Ohtani is such a slacker.

[rageous]

Kurt Suzuki catching means 2 passed balls and 3 stolen bases.

[Amazing Larry]

“Notahni”

[T.G.]

Fletcher hitting 9th is such a Scioscia move.  Not against it by any means, but this is exactly the kind of thing Scioscia would have done.

No-Sho

Glad to see we brought out the A team

[Amazing Larry]

That would be awesome if B.A. Baracus was in the lineup.

[Docwaukee]

well.  that's certainly a lineup.

Angels roster and depth update: Still bad

[Stradling]

Looks more like a line-down, am I right guys?

Go Halos!

Which means we’ll win by seven runs in this one and confuse the shit out of everyone.

Then we will print the playoff tickets.

Just giving Walsh a breather in game 1, I hope?

Any word on Stassi???

Stassi.

I think getting Rodriguez back and Quijada will certainly boost our bullpen. 

I'm over Slegers and Cishek is iffy.

Yet another reason that WAR sometimes drives me crazy.  Rodriguez is at 0.2 at Fangraphs, behind Cobb, Bundy, Heaney, Quintana, and Canning among pitchers.

That said, yes, I want him back ASAP.

This team has fallen apart since Rodriguez went down and that's because he gets everyone out..  He basically makes it so it's never the wrong move to use him.

Now that's a truly shitty lineup. Only one guy who isn't a replacement player, at least this year (Fletch should improve...right?)
